What happens when 21-year-old Leo, in the midst of personal loss and grief, shows up without warning on the doorstep of his cranky, political 91-year-old grandmother, Vera? We could tell you, but watching it play out onstage is a lot more fun. $41.50, $43.50. See website for showtimes. Wool Studio Theatre, 2 Millstone Campus, jccstl.com.

The 1987 movie (starring Jennifer Grey as Frances "Baby" Houseman and Patrick Swayze as Johnny Castle) gave us two big cultural touchstones: the phrase "No one puts Baby in the corner," and the song “(I’ve Had) The Time Of My Life.” There's a lot more to this show than you might remember and quite a few more catchy tunes, too, including “Hungry Eyes,” “Hey Baby,” and “Do You Love Me?” And, of course, you get to see all of that dazzling choreography live. $65–$125. See website for showtimes. Fox Theatre, 527 N. Grand, fabulousfox.com.

The Gateway Korean Foundation hosts multimedia artist CYJO, an American artist of Korean descent whose work engages with issues of immigration, borders, and identity—all timely subjects. For this event, she presents KYOPO, "a photographic and textual contemporary art project that profiles over 200 individuals of Korean ethnicity, mainly Americans." (The word kyopo means a person of Korean descent who resides outside Korea.) The series includes both still portraits (shown at the Smithsonian, which selected many of them for its permanent collection) and a series of video interviews that feature a wide range of subjects who "delve into being Asian American, a Korean adoptee, mixed race, and discusses the juggling of the collective vs. the individual way of thinking." The artist will be on hand for a 6 p.m. cocktail reception featuring traditional Korean rice cakes, followed by a screening of KYOPO. Free. 6 p.m. Saint Louis Art Museum's Farrell Auditorium, 1 Fine Arts Drive, gateway-korea.org.

Chicago artist Chance The Rapper swept the Grammys this year and is transforming the music biz with his open-source approach to distributing songs. He's making news this week with all of the artists he's adding to his Rapper Radio platform, including DJ Khaled, Jidenna, and Linkin Park. As the San Diego Union-Tribune noted, for this tour, he's jettisoned the giant Muppet creatures, replacing them with "three video screens, a climactic burst of confetti, a hydraulic lift, an elevated metal walkway that ran the length of the arena floor, and enough pyrotechnics to fuel a Kiss concert." $36.50–$76.50. 8 p.m. Scottrade Center, 1401 Clark, scottradecenter.com.
